I think the only way you can tell for definate before they start to show is to get a scan done by the vets but i'm sorry i can't remember how much they charge for it or how far along the dog has to be before you can get it done :)

You'll have to keep us all updated. What kind of dog is she?

[purplelady]

Oh!
just feed her more than usual and chat with the vet about worming etc...
Good luck when the puppies arrive!

Count 60 days from the time she was caught and expect the puppies close to that date. She will start nesting at some point and you will need to try and accomodate her in a quiet, dry place. She might not want to have them where you want her to. 24 hours before birth her temperature will drop by a degree. Get in touch with your vet for detailed advice.
Good luck and just let her get on with it unless you suspect something is wrong. The vet will be needed then.
